Turning it up to eleven

After the release of their latest album ‘We’re All Gonna Die’, Dawes have announced three UK dates in Glasgow, Manchester and London in November.

Los Angeles quartet Dawes returned home to record their fifth album ‘We’re All Gonna Die’ with longtime friend and collaborator, Grammy nominated producer Blake Mills (Alabama Shakes). The follow up to last year’s ‘All Your Favorite Bands’, it was released September 16th on the band’s own HUB Records to rave reviews. ‘We’re All Gonna Die’ features ten original tracks and includes backing vocals from Brittany Howard of Alabama Shakes, Jim James of My Morning Jacket, Holly Laessig and Jess Wolfe of Lucius, Mandy Moore and Will Oldham.

Of the album, Taylor Goldsmith (guitar, vocals) explains, “These songs were all written in a very short period of time, very close together. In that sense I feel like there was a consistency in mood and outlook our other records don’t have. Pretty much every song on this record explores a difficult situation and tries to find a way to find the good in it, or at least remind yourself that it’s not always that big of a deal. After all, as scary as it is, we are all gonna die.” Listen to the title track here, and watch the music video for the album’s lead single, “When The Tequila Runs Out”, directed by Kevin Hayes, here.
